CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

This application claims priority to German Patent Application No. 102017 217 458.7, filed Sep. 29, 2017, which is incorporated herein byreference in its entirety.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to a cosmetic composition based on twospecific copolymers for hair setting or for the temporary shaping ofkeratinic fibers, in particular human hair, and method and use of thiscomposition and its use for improving long-term holding and moistureresistance.

BACKGROUND

The temporary design of hairstyles for a longer period up to severaldays usually requires the application of setting active ingredients.Hair treatment agents which are used for temporary shaping of the hairtherefore play an important role. Corresponding agents for temporarydeformation usually contain synthetic polymers and/or waxes as thesetting active ingredient. Agents for supporting the temporary shapingof keratin-containing fibers can be formulated, for example, as a hairspray, hair wax, hair gel or hair mousse.

The most important property of an agent for the temporary deformation ofhair, hereinafter also referred to as a styling agent, is to give thetreated fibers in the newly modeled shape, i.e., a shape impressed onthe hair, the strongest possible hold. One also speaks of stronghairstyle hold or the high degree of hold of the styling agent. Thehairstyle hold is essentially determined by the type and amount of thesetting active ingredients used, wherein, however, an influence of theother ingredients of the styling agent may also be given.

In addition to a high degree of hold, styling agents must meet a wholeseries of other requirements. These may be broadly subdivided intoproperties on the hair, properties of the particular formulation, e.g.,properties of the foam, of the gel or of the sprayed aerosol, and ofproperties which affect the handling of the styling agent, wherein theproperties on the hair are of particular importance. Particularlynoteworthy are moisture resistance, low tack and a balanced conditioningeffect. Furthermore, a styling agent should be universally applicablefor all hair types and mild to hair and skin.

A variety of synthetic polymers which are used in styling agents havealready been developed as setting active ingredients to meet thedifferent requirements. The polymers can be subdivided into cationic,anionic, nonionic and amphoteric setting polymers.

European Patent Application EP 3 069 709 A1 describes hair cosmeticpolymer mixtures which contain, in addition to an oxyalkylene polymer,the hydrophobically modified (meth)acrylic acid copolymer having thetrade name Luvigel Fit (INCI: Acrylates (C10-30) Alkyl MethacrylateCopolymer).

The German patent application DE 10 2011 089 172 A1 describes a stylingagent based on a combination of an anionic copolymer and a quaternizedcellulose.

Ideally, when applied to hair, the polymers provide a polymer filmwhich, on the one hand, gives the hairstyle a strong hold but, on theother hand, is sufficiently flexible not to break under stress. If thepolymer film is too brittle, it results in the formation of so-calledfilm plaques, that is, residues that detach during the movement of thehair and give the impression that the user of the corresponding stylingagent might have dandruff. Similar problems arise when waxes are used asa setting active ingredient in the styling agent. If the styling agentis a gel or a paste, the polymers should also have thickeningproperties.

BRIEF SUMMARY

Cosmetic compositions for the temporarily shaping of keratinic fibersand methods for using such cosmetic compositions are provided herein. Inan exemplary embodiment, a cosmetic composition for the temporarilyshaping of keratinic fibers comprises at least one non-crosslinked,hydrophobically modified (meth)acrylic acid copolymer and at least onequaternized cellulose.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The following detailed description is merely exemplary in nature and isnot intended to limit the disclosure or the application and uses of thesubject matter as described herein. Furthermore, there is no intentionto be bound by any theory presented in the preceding background or thefollowing detailed description.

An object of the present disclosure was to provide further suitablepolymer combinations which are distinguished by good film-forming and/orsetting properties, have a very high degree of hold, without having torelinquish flexibility and good moisture resistance, in particularperspiration and water resistance, and also be suitable for theproduction of stable viscous and stable transparent cosmeticcompositions. In particular, currently available styling agents canstill be improved to the extent that a good combination of stiffness andlong-term holding (high humidity curl retention) is not alwayssufficiently guaranteed. It is therefore an object of the presentdisclosure to provide such styling agents which, in addition to theabovementioned properties, in particular provide both good stiffness andgood long-term holding.

This was achieved as contemplated herein by a combination of twospecific anionic copolymers.

In the context of the present disclosure, it has surprisingly beendetermined that an improved hold of styling products can be achieved bycombining known two components which are already used in stylingproducts. Other commonly required properties of styling products such asmoisture resistance, stiffness and low tack remained unchanged. Such agood combination of properties was not expected even with knowledge ofthe individual components and was surprising. It was shownexperimentally that the combination of the two components resulted in astrongly superadditive, i.e., synergistic effect with respect to hold,which was manifested by the HHRC test (High Humidity Curl RetentionTest).

The term keratinic fibers as contemplated herein comprises furs, wooland feathers, but in particular human hair.

The essential components of the cosmetic composition are thenon-crosslinked, hypodrophobically modified copolymer a) and thequaternized cellulose b) different from the copolymer a).

Ester oils, that is, esters of 6-C30 fatty acids with C2-C30 fattyalcohols, preferably monoester of fatty acids with alcohols having fromabout 2 to about 24 carbon atoms such as isopropyl myristate (Rilanit®IPM), isononanoic acid C16-18 alkyl ester (Cetiol® SN), 2-ethylhexylpalmitate (Cegesoft® 24), stearic acid-2-ethylhexyl ester (Cetiol® 868),cetyl oleate, glycerol tricaprylate, cocofatty alcohol caprate/caprylate(Cetiol® LC), n-butyl stearate, oleyl erucate (Cetiol® J 600), isopropylpalmitate (Rilanit® IPP), oleyl oleate (Cetiol®), hexyl laurate(Cetiol®A), di-n-butyl adipate (Cetiol® B), myristyl myristate (Cetiol®MM), cetearyl isononanoate (Cetiol® SN), decyl oleate (Cetiol® V) aremore preferred caring oil bodies.

Also suitable as care products are dicarboxylic acid esters,symmetrical, asymmetrical or cyclic esters of carbonic acid with fattyalcohols, triflic acid esters of saturated and/or unsaturated linearand/or branched fatty acids with glycerol or fatty acid partialglycerides, which are understood to mean monoglycerides, diglyceridesand their technical mixtures.

Furthermore, emulsifiers or surface-active substances are preferablypresent in the composition as contemplated herein. Preferred are PEGderivatives of hydrogenated castor oil which are available, for example,under the name PEG Hydrogenated Castor Oil, e.g., PEG-30 HydrogenatedCastor Oil, PEG-33 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, PEG-35 Hydrogenated CastorOil, PEG-36 Hydrogenated Castor Oil or PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil.Preferred as contemplated herein is the use of PEG-40 HydrogenatedCastor Oil. These are preferably present in an amount from about 0.05 toabout 1.5% by weight, more preferably from about 0.1 to about 1.0% byweight, also preferably from about 0.2 to about 0.8% by weight or fromabout 0.3 to about 0.6% by weight. By adding the surface-activesubstances, in particular the abovementioned PEG derivatives ofhydrogenated castor oil, in addition to the processibility, the abilityof the cosmetic compositions to be washed out is improved in particular.

The cosmetic compositions as contemplated herein contain the ingredientsor active ingredients in a cosmetically tolerable carrier.

Preferred cosmetically tolerable carriers are aqueous, alcoholic oraqueous-alcoholic media having preferably at least about 10% by weightof water, calculated on the total weight of the agent. The cosmeticcarrier as contemplated herein particularly preferably contains water,in particular in an amount such that the cosmetic composition, based onits total weight, contains at least about 20% by weight, in particularat least about 40.0% by weight, most preferably at least about 70% byweight of water. Very particularly preferred cosmetic compositions have,based on their total weight, a water content from about 50 to about 95%by weight, preferably from about 60 to about 90% by weight and inparticular from about 65 to about 85% by weight.

As alcohols, it is possible in particular to include the lower alcoholshaving from about 1 to about 4 carbon atoms usually used for cosmeticpurposes, such as, for example, ethanol and isopropanol.

Examples of water-soluble solvents as cosolvent are glycerol and/orethylene glycol and/or 1,2-propylene glycol in an amount of from about 0to about 30% by weight based on the total agent.

The composition of some preferred cosmetic agents can be found in thefollowing tables (in % by weight based on the total weight of thecosmetic agent, unless stated otherwise).

As contemplated herein, “Misc” is understood to mean a cosmetic carrier,in particular (unless stated separately) water and optionally furthercustomary constituents of styling products.

The cosmetic composition of the present disclosure may be formulated inthe shapes customary for the temporary shaping of hair, e.g., as a hairgel, hair spray, hair mousse or hair wax. Preference is given to thepreparation as a hair gel.

Both hair mousses and hair sprays require the presence of foamingagents. As contemplated herein, however, preferably no or only smallamounts of hydrocarbons should be used for this purpose. Propane,propane/butane mixtures and dimethyl ether are particularly suitablefoaming agents as contemplated herein.

The present disclosure also relates to the use of cosmetic compositionsas contemplated herein for the temporary shaping of keratinic fibers, inparticular of human hair, and a method for the temporary deformation ofkeratinic fibers, in particular human hair, in which the keratinicfibers are acted upon by a cosmetic composition as contemplated hereinand temporarily fixed in their shape.

A further subject of this patent application is the use of a cosmeticcomposition as contemplated herein for improving the holding oftemporarily deformed keratinic fibers.

A final subject of this patent application is the use of a cosmeticcomposition as contemplated herein for improving the moisture resistanceof temporarily deformed keratinic fibers.
